The Taska Tasmania Story
When Magda retired she realised that she was going to get very bored very
quickly. She had a sewing machine which had seen little use because she
couldn't find the time to sew, even though it was something she had always
wanted to do.
Sewing became a bit of a passion ( “should have been doing this all my life”
sort of thing ). A way of funding the hobby had to be found and Taska
Tasmania was born. Initially the idea was to set up a table at one of the local
craft markets and sell shopping bags.
Magda's heritage is Hungarian and that's where the name Taska Tasmania
comes from. “ Taska ” is “ bag ” in Hungarian.
